Sarah Yarkin and Elsie Fisher, the lead actresses in Texas Chainsaw Massacre, discuss how they pulled off one of the film&#039;s climactic scenes.

Texas Chainsaw Massacre Cast Shares Their Climax Scene Filming Experience

If you’ve seen Texas Chainsaw Massacre, you know that there are some gruesome
and lengthy scenes in the film. As much as it horrified us while watching these
scenes, these actors and crew members genuinely put in a lot of effort to bring
their project to life. They closely watched every detail, from the makeup to the
costume, and how the particular set will appear to the body movements.

The movie is 82 minutes long, set 50 years after the original Texas Chainsaw
Massacre movie was premiered. Sarah Yarkin, Elsie Fisher, Jacob Latimore, Moe
Dunford, Nell Hudson, and Mark Burnham, who plays the heinous character
Leatherface, are among the cast members of David Blue Garcia’s film. And
recently, cast members Sarah Yarkin (Melody) and Elsie Fisher (Lila) explained
what they went through to get Leatherface’s final death scene on screen.


LEAD CHARACTERS WALK US THROUGH A CLIMAX SCENE SHOT BY SHOT

Sarah and Elsie explain the scene shot by shot in a video that lasts 4 minutes
and 10 seconds. Elsie begins to describe how her character was struggling in the
closing minutes, and Sarah’s character, Melody, steps in to save her.

They both continued to talk about how cold it was and how Lila needed to get out
of the water. But Leatherface grabs her leg and drags her away. Elsie then
stated that because the scene was long and extremely important, they had to
block the actions. Apparently, that was extremely exhausting.



The scenes were choreographed, and Sarah mentioned one scene in particular where
they had to do a few retakes. The scene in question was the one where Melody
jumped on Leatherface from behind, and because Leatherface was tall, Sarah had
to use a couple of juice boxes and a running leap to land on top of him.

TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE CAST MEMBER RECALLS THE SEWAGE PIPE SCENE

There’s this scene where everything is a complete mess, and a sewage pipe
explodes on Melody. Sarah Yarkin, the actress, remarks that she was covered in
poop for the rest of the shoot. Elsie then explained her own difficulties with
the super-heavy shotgun used by the character to shoot Leatherface. In several
shots, the actress sported a foam one, but they occasionally gave her the real
thing. Her muscles were sore because of this.
